Free Movement of Artistes and Musicians
In July 1996, the Conference expanded the categories of persons allowed free movement for work purposes to include Artistes, Sports Persons, Musicians and Media Workers.
In order to give legal effect to this mandate, Member States also had to or must still enact or amend legislation and put in place the necessary administrative and procedural framework.
Currently, the free movement of these categories is in place in all Member States, except Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Montserrat and St. Kitts and Nevis.
